Decorative map of Europe with good detail throughout. It is based upon Haas' stereographic horizontal projection, which was featured in his book on cartographic methodology. Large decorative cartouche features Europa, crowns, horse heads, putti and the figure of Fame with her trumpet. A handsome map that extends to include Iceland, the Mediterranean, and part of Northern Africa. French title L'Europe dessinee Suivant les Regles... is in top margin.

A nice impression with contemporary color in the map and later color in the decorative elements. There is some minor foxing and a 3" centerfold separation at bottom that has been closed on both verso and recto with old paper.
